China's Leading CNC Turning Company for Global OEMs
Founded in 2010, MW+ Precision Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a specialist CNC turning company in Shenzhen, China. Our 12,000 m² facility operates advanced CNC lathes, live tool turning centres, and Swiss-type automatics capable of turning diameters from Ø1 mm to Ø800 mm and lengths to 1,000 mm — all under real-time Statistical Process Control.
With over 14 years of turning expertise, our team of 60+ machinists and quality engineers delivers consistent dimensional accuracy from first prototype through 100,000-unit production runs. Each project is assigned a dedicated account engineer — giving global procurement teams direct access to technical guidance, not just a production floor.
Partnering with MW+ delivers 20–40% cost advantages versus equivalent Western turning suppliers, while maintaining full certification compliance — ISO 9001:2015, AS9100D, IATF 16949, ISO 13485 compatibility, and ITAR registration — that demanding OEM supply chains require.
"In CNC turning, micron-level decisions compound across thousands of parts. After 14 years and over 2 million turned components shipped, our edge is not just machine capability — it's the institutional process knowledge that prevents defects before they occur."

A transparent, engineering-led workflow built for professional procurement teams. Average total cycle: 3–25 working days depending on complexity, material, and volume.
2-Axis, Live Tool & Swiss-Type CNC Turning
Three distinct turning technologies — each optimised for different part geometries, diameter ranges, and tolerance requirements. Our engineering team recommends the right process for your application.
2-Axis CNC Turning
The cost-effective workhorse for shafts, pins, bushings, and cylindrical components. X and Z axis movement produces consistent external and internal diameters, tapers, grooves, and threads at high throughput — ideal for medium to high-volume production.
- Spindle speed up to 4,500 RPM
- Roughing and finishing in one chucking
- All thread forms: Metric, UNC, UNF, BSP, NPT
- Bar-fed automation for 24/7 production
Live Tool CNC Turning
Combines turning and milling in a single setup using powered turret tools. Y-axis capability enables off-centre milling, cross-drilling, and flat features on cylindrical parts — eliminating secondary operations, reducing setups by up to 50%, and improving inter-feature positional accuracy.
- Y-axis for off-centre milling and keyways
- Simultaneous milling and turning operations
- Cross-drilling, tapping, and slotting in one setup
- Reduces handling errors and re-referencing
Swiss-Type CNC Turning
Purpose-built for small-diameter precision parts (Ø1–32 mm). A guide bushing positioned immediately adjacent to the cutting zone provides ultra-rigid support, enabling ±0.005mm tolerances on long slender components that would deflect on a standard lathe. Essential for medical screws, dental implants, watch components, and electronic pins.
- Guide bushing for near-zero deflection
- Live tooling with backworking capability
- Concentricity to 0.002 mm achievable
- Full biocompatibility documentation for medical

Complete CNC Turning Service Types
Every turning service MW+ offers — from first-off prototypes to lights-out mass production, from micro Swiss pins to Ø800mm heavy shafts. Identical quality standards across all service tiers.
Rapid Prototype Turning
Fast-turn first-off prototypes in production-grade materials. Free DFM review, material alternatives advisory, and instant quotation on standard cylindrical geometries.
Low-Volume Production
Bridge production for clinical trials, market testing, or seasonal demand. Fixture and tooling costs amortised across the run. Suitable for PPAP submission samples.
High-Volume Production Turning
Automated bar-fed lathes, robotic part unloading, and SPC-monitored production cells. JIT delivery scheduling, kanban replenishment, and blanket order arrangements available.
Lights-Out CNC Turning
Fully automated turning cells running overnight and weekends. Integrated vision systems perform 100% OD measurement in-cycle. Cost-per-part minimised at scale without sacrificing quality.
Precision Shaft Turning
High-straightness shafts for gearboxes, motors, pumps, and spindles. Cylindricity, runout, and straightness reported per GD&T. Ground OD finishes to Ra 0.4 µm available.
Swiss-Type Micro Turning
Guide-bushing supported turning for slender small-diameter parts. Eliminates deflection errors on long L/D ratios. Ideal for medical bone screws, watch stems, electronic pins, and dental implants.
Mill-Turn / Turn-Mill
Live tool turning centres machine flats, keyways, cross-holes, eccentric features, and slots on cylindrical parts in a single clamping — eliminating datum shift and reducing cycle time by up to 50%.
Contour & Taper Turning
CNC interpolation produces complex external profiles — convex radii, concave forms, compound tapers, and spline shapes — in a single pass without form tools. Used for turbine nozzles, valve stems, and custom fittings.
Thread Turning & Rolling
Single-point thread turning for all standards and custom pitches. Thread rolling for work-hardened, fatigue-resistant threads on high-stress aerospace and automotive fasteners. Go/No-Go gauge verification standard.
Bushings, Sleeves & Liners
Wear-resistant plain bearings, slide bushings, and hydraulic cylinder liners. H7/p6 press-fit, H8/e8 clearance, and custom fits. ID honing available for Ra ≤ 0.4 µm bore finish.
Turned Rings & Flanges
Large-diameter rings, retaining flanges, bearing races, and spacer discs turned on heavy-duty lathes. Face flatness and bore concentricity controlled simultaneously to minimise perpendicularity error.
Connector Pins & Contacts
High-precision electrical contact pins, terminal posts, and spring-loaded pogo pins turned from beryllium copper, brass C360, or phosphor bronze. RoHS-compliant plating with controlled contact resistance.
CNC Turning + Grinding
Rough and semi-finish turning followed by cylindrical OD or ID grinding achieves bearing-quality surfaces. Used for hardened steel spindles, gauge pins, and precision rollers where turning Ra alone is insufficient.
Hard Turning
CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) insert turning of hardened steels up to 68 HRC. Achieves Ra 0.4 µm surface finish, often eliminating the grinding operation entirely. Used for gear shafts, bearing housings, and valve seats after heat treatment.
Sub-Spindle & Backworking
Dual-spindle turning centres machine the front and back of a part in a single continuous cycle — no manual re-chucking, no datum loss. Particularly effective for Swiss-type and bar-fed parts requiring machined ends on both sides.
Custom & Exotic Alloy Turning
Inconel, Waspaloy, Hastelloy, tungsten, Kovar, Invar 36, beryllium copper, and PEEK. Optimised tooling, cutting parameters, and coolant strategies prevent work-hardening and ensure dimensional stability in the most difficult-to-machine materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Technical and commercial answers for procurement engineers evaluating CNC turning suppliers. Can't find what you need?
Contact Our EngineersStandard 2-axis CNC turning achieves ±0.01mm. Live tool turning holds ±0.008mm. Swiss-type turning routinely achieves ±0.005mm and can reach ±0.0025mm on critical bearing diameters. Concentricity is held to 0.002mm on dedicated setups. All tolerances verified with Zeiss Contura G2 CMM and documented in FAI or PDF dimensional reports.
Standard CNC turning handles up to Ø500mm diameter and 1,000mm length. Swiss-type CNC turning covers Ø1–32mm precision parts. Heavy-duty lathes handle diameters up to Ø800mm for large industrial components such as wind turbine shafts and pump impellers.
2-axis CNC turning moves the tool in X and Z to produce cylindrical shapes — best for shafts, pins, and bushings at high volume. Live tool turning adds powered milling, drilling, and tapping tools on the lathe turret plus C-axis and optional Y-axis, enabling off-axis features in a single setup. Swiss-type turning uses a guide bushing adjacent to the cutting zone for ultra-rigid support, enabling ±0.005mm on small-diameter parts (Ø1–32mm) such as medical screws, pins, and electronic contacts.
